Title-chasing Gor Mahia lose defender Shafik Batambuze to injury again

Gor Mahia defender Shafik Batambuze is set for a long spell in the sidelines after picking up an injury on Monday.

The Ugandan left-back was making a comeback from another injury, sustained during their Kenyan Premier League (KPL) match against Bandar,i and did not finish the second half of the match against Ulinzi Stars which Gor Mahia won 2-1 to stretch their lead at the summit.

“He picked a serious knee injury and I don’t think he will be able to play again this season. It looked a very bad injury and we will have to access him first, but I don’t know, maybe he will play maybe he will not,” Oktay told Goal in an interview.
